Standardising personalised diabetes care across European health settings: A person‐centred outcome set agreed in a multinational Delphi study

Diabet MedPublished Delphi consensus study

Authors' conclusion

PROs are often considered in a non-standardised way in routine diabetes care. We propose a person-centred outcome set for diabetes, specifically considering psychosocial and behavioural aspects, which was agreed by four international key stakeholder groups. It guides standardised collection of meaningful outcomes at scale, supporting individual and population level healthcare decision making. It will be implemented and tested in Europe as part of the H2O project.
